Default Tires and Tubes

Is anyone, besides me, having problems finding center valve ( rubber) tubes for the the 19 inch 30/31 wheels. Also, how long is it taking to receive your tires. I am going to order Firestones from where ever I can get them. Thanks...Nick

I ordered a couple 19" rubber stem tubes from Snyders on Monday, two days ago. They were on my doorstep today.

I see Model A tires took a pretty good price jump.

Blackwall 19" Goodyears are 225 bucks a pop I think just two months ago they were $185 or $190

I wonder how the European brand tires wear, the ones that have the Diamond Tread pattern they advertise in the Club mags? I believe they are $120. If they are made in Europe I'm sure they would be good quality. Maybe they are made in Asia at that price I dunno. At that price it is very tempting to try them out.

RE: European Classics. I have been running them on my tudor for 2 years with around 8000 miles on them. See very little wear. Very happy with them at $110.00/
